on KPOO: the orig "Lawdy Miss Clawdy"
"you like to ball in the morning..."
how did that line get on the radio in the '50s?
ETA followed by the Queen of Rock'n'Roll hiz own damn self, Little Richard, "Long Tall Sally", the first song about a tranny hooker to make the charts.
"I saw uncle John with bald head Sally..."
-
OMGWTF! Hank Ballard doing a mean JB imitation on a song about black hair: "How You Gonna Get Respect (You Haven't Cut Your Process Yet)" Judge is being amazing as usual.
followed by Kurtis Blow, "If I Ruled the World"!!
-
A side of Rick James live -- "Ghetto Life", "Give it to Me Baby", recorded in Long Beach, to judge by his comments to the audience.
-
William DeVaughn's soundalike follow-up to "Be Thankful For What You Got", "Blood May Be Thicker Than Water (But Nothin's Thicker Than Love)".
-
another OMGWTF -- Barbara Acklin's "Am I the Same Girl?", essentially "Soulful Strut" with lyrics. Fab.
-
Hearing some cool stuff today, when the stream is cooperating. Unfortunately, it's been the usual on-again, off-again affair. And once or twice, I get into this loop where the same 30-45 seconds of music repeats over and over. Eventually it breaks the loop and joins the live stream again, but I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
Also, notice that Judge is referring to today's show as the "total experience in soul" rather than ...in sound"? Does that mean he's not going to be busting out into any other genres?
-
Funky 4 + 1! On & on & on on & on...
-
Lonnie Liston-Smith, "Cosmic Funk".
-
Hoo Lawd! "In the Bottle"!
-
JGB "How Sweet it is to be Loved by You"
going to church in the afternoon!
-
JGB "How Sweet it is to be Loved by You"
I didn't think a whiter version than James Taylor's was possible... :wink:

While there's no point in disagreeing, I thought I'd post some pictures of some of the band members on this track:

CG treat of the morning: Albert Hammond, "The Free Electric Band". How this managed to avoid being a US hit still baffles me.
and followed by Dr Hook's "A Little Bit More", one of their mid-'70s gems.
-
one for the princess: Richard Marx, "Hazard".
-
and one for Gaz: "Which Way You Goin' Billy?"
followed by Boy George, stepping out like a Gotham child to pick up the garbage.
-
a Brit obscurity: B.A. Robertson, "Bang Bang" (not the Cher hit), from '79, sounding a bit like Squeeze's "Take Me I'm Yours." Reached #2 in the UK, did nothing here.
Followed by Madonna's delightful "True Blue".
-
Dean closes out his CG show with Karen Carpenter at her loveliest on "Superstar". *swoon*
-
from CG to 'LNG in time for "Dang Me"!
"Roses are red
violets are purple
sugar is sweet
and so's maple surple"
-
Good God -- the GrassRoots' "Bella Linda", which I haven't heard since '69.
-
Stills/Kooper Super Sessions "Season of the Witch."
-
Today on CG: Elvis, "The Wonder of You," which I hadn't heard in years.
-
Today on CG: Elvis, "The Wonder of You," which I hadn't heard in years.
I remember being very impressed by that at the time. I was really just discovering Elvis as an "artist"; "If I can Dream", "In the Ghetto" and "Suspicious Minds" had opened that door. That rarity, an impressive vocal on a "live" single.
I you're still CG-ing, I'll switch over from KRSH.
-
Glad I stayed with KRSH: Dylan, "You're a Big Girl Now".
-
Glad I stayed with KRSH: Dylan, "You're a Big Girl Now".
me too, been listening, had a good time with that. Now Richard Thompson's classic song about the Vincent Black Shadow and the Red Headed Girl
-
that new Shawn Colvin made me drowsy, so I switched to WLNG in time for John Paul Young, "Love is in the Air". Cheeze for lunch!
-
Ray Stevens, "Everything is Beautiful", including the oft-edited children's chorus at the beginning. Lovely.
"Sing it, chillun!"
Followed by Smooth Smokey, "Baby Baby Don't Cry -- gotta love a song that rhymes "has to be" with "catastrophe".
-
the original album version of "St. Stephen!"
One man gathers what another man spills!
(http://deaddisc.com/images/Aoxomoxoa.jpg)
-
One man gathers what another man spills!
the official motto of the Exxon Valdez...
-
ooh! the Jerry Butler/Betty Everett cover of "Let it Be Me".
-
nice listening to Nick Drake "River Man." I have never heard this before, but I come late to the Nick Drake party. My son knew about him before I did, but I got totally struck by "Northern Sky" when I saw the movie "Serendipity"
I'm such a sap.
-
back to KRSH -- what sounds like Raul Malo covering JD Souther's "You're Only Lonely". VERY nice.
-

and indeed it was Mr Malo -- I looked up the CD on amazon, he also covers the Bee Gees' "Run to Me".
-
playing Petty's version of "Something in the Air" which IMHO is quite inferior to the original, and seems like a non-KRSH thing to do! Ah, the perils of free-form radio!
-
24kbps AAC, so you'll need Winamp or VLC.
http://205.188.215.232:8022/listen.pls
Playing some new Johnny Cash, I think. "Further On Up The Road"

AAC is normally handled by iTunes, and it loads and displays as such, but goes no where. What is VLC?

iTunes doesn't handle streaming AAC though.
VLC stands for VideoLan Client and it plays all sorts of various video and audio formats, including streaming AAC. Here's a link to download the client:

Well, VIP promised to be back online today but... no. So I'm listening to KBEC (classic country from Waxahatchee, TX) and I'm hearing ONJ, "Please Mister Please"! the '70s sure were a different time. *sigh*
-
vintage George Jones, "Why Baby Why". Yee-haw!
-
Getting my indie rock fix on, checking out a friend's show on WLUW from Chicago. Only thing is, she's out today. But the guy who's sitting in played a great Sonic Youth cover of Ça Plane Pour Moi, and now is playing something that sounds very very Raspberry-ish. Have to listen for the backsell to find out who it is.
ETA: And the Raspberryish tune is followed by what sounds like a Harry Nilsson song I can't place either. Great set, even if I'm stumped.

Should have listened to my instincts: the Raspberryish tune was indeed the Raspberries, "Play On", while the Nilssonish one turned out to be a guy named Emmett Rhodes, from LA. Very cool piano-laden ballad. Going to have to look for his stuff.

OMG! We've discussed him here -- his debut LP (he only made 2 oe 3 that I know of) in 1970, right around the same time as Macca's first, was considered one of the great McCartney soundalikes. I have it on vinyl. The song "She's Such a Beauty" is such a clone of "Martha My Dear" that I played them back-to-back on a Beatle-themed mixtape I made.

Well, VIP promised to be back online today but... no. So I'm listening to KBEC (classic country from Waxahatchee, TX) and I'm hearing ONJ, "Please Mister Please"! the '70s sure were a different time. *sigh*
more '70s: Anne Murray's lovely cover of Mr Loggins' "Love Song". Lesbian gym teachers everywhere swoon.
ETA: Still more... Ms Ronstadt adds steel guitar to "Tracks of My Tears". Followed by Randy Travis' sublime rendition of Brook Benton's "It's Just a Matter of Time". This has been quite a treat today.
-
I just tuned in to one of AccuRadio's new soul-themed channels, focused on 1966-1972. (I like their sense of divisions.) First song was one I'd never heard, a guy sounding like Joe Tex (probably him) singing with a leer what I could swear was the line, "I'm gonna steal your garter." Wha-wha-WHAAAH?

*SPITS*LOL
BTW, "Please Mister Please" was one of the soft-rock classics I imported from my brother's CD library while I was in Pittsburgh. I'll have to make the list -- but it's lots of ONJ, Air Supply, Boz Scaggs, Andy Gibb, and little bits of Player, ED&JFC, David Gates, and Hall & Oates.
I'm such a sap, too.

Speaking of sap, I switched over to 'LNG in time for Robin Ward's delightful Lesley Gore knockoff, "Wonderful Summer".
-
'LNG '80s Nugget o'the Day: Thompson Twins, "King For a Day".

Is Boz that poorly understood? :lol:
-
OMG, it's Jose Feliciano's "High Heel Sneakers", his sadly ignored follow-up to "Light My Fire".
and only on 'LNG could that be followed by the Turtles "She's My Girl". Mornin', Mornin' Glory!

I'm guessing that "garter" was "daughter", which would make it Wilson Pickett.
I'm listening to that channel right now, it could replace VIP if they don't get their technical shit together.
and as if on cue, the song in question appears, and yes it's the Wicked One. Followed by Lynda Lyndell, "What a Man", later sampled by Salt'n'Pepa.
-
kinda fun. The 60's channel is a little clichéd, but listening to Vanilla Fudge is a hoot anyway! "Get outta my life, why doncha babe!"

Hee! Point taken, but sorry, I cherry-picked his soft-rockers: "We're All Alone" (yes, Kermit voice and all), "You Can Have Me Anytime," and "Look What You've Done to Me." Tell me those aren't interchangeable with Barry Manilow's ballads of the period.

I'd never considered it, but yeah, any of 'em coulda been covered by Barry in his inimitably overproduced style. Guess Rita Coolidge beat him to "We're All Alone"...

OK, they're not!
-
CGSS: one of my very fave Kid Creole songs, "Annie I'm not Your Daddy"
"'cause if I was in your blood
then you wouldn't be so ugly!"
August Darnell: underacknowledged genius.
-
The Original Narada! "I Should've Charted Higher".
-
"push push in the bush" -- one of those rare explicitly heterosexual disco songs.
-
OMGWTF: Lionel Richie, "Running With the Night." I loved that so much in my Solid Gold formative years.
-
Hey, who's this, "Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers"? It sounds about 1971, bits of the Corporation and Philly Soul in the production, and bits of Chi-Lites and J5 and Stevie (his cookie-monster growl, anyway) in the lead vocal.

I think it sounds like the Isleys, but it's the Chairmen of the Board -- that must not be General Johnson on lead vocals. (and indeed it's '71 or '72)
ReeRee! Drop the top, baby!
have things cooled down in the Apple?
-
is this Bobby W doing "Wish it Would Rain"? DAMN!
-
WTF is up with KRSH -- this ain't no Soul Patrol. Oh, it's an Arthur Lee tribute...
-
OK now we're cookin' -- obscure Al Green.
-
"we got 007
the private eye
and he's bringin' all the guys
from I Spy"
Shorty Long at da function at da junction!
-
hoo lawd, the Isleys orig version of "Work To Do", also done nicely by AWB and (much later) Vanessa Williams.
-
Geoff's bete noir, Bobby Hebb, "Sunny"
-
Is Alicat working this afternoon? How she gonna do it if she really don't wanna dance?

does this mean you missed the Arthur Lee thing?
I Googled Arthur Lee in re: his being black in a white milieu, and came up with this book:
(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/140396243X.01.MZZZZZZZ.jpg)
which I immediately ordered from Amazon (for all of 39 cents!)

You should've ordered a dozen and given them out as gifts! I need to read that one too.
Meantime, it's the lovely and talented Tavares on "Don't Take Away the backstabbers."
-
PS: Yeah, I missed the Arthur Lee thing. Running nuisance errands today since I'll only have Sundays off for the rest of this month.
-
Git UP-ah! JB feels like a Sex Machine, and y'all KNOW what that means.
-
Lufa w/Change, "Searching". There was fog on the road, so he hopes no one saw him arriving at the Pendulum.
"oops upside yo' head! it's funkin' habit-formin'!"
-
Lufa w/Change, "Searching". There was fog on the road, so he hopes no one saw him arriving at the Pendulum.
Wow, that song was 31 flavors of SUCK.

Gladys washes the bad taste away with some "Overtime".
-
On AccuRadio's "Women of Soul", a Shirelles song called "Boys" which is essentially Ray Charles' "What'd I Say?" with different lyrics.
followed by early Minnie Riperton, also new to me.
-
the Velvelettes, "Needle in a Haystack", later done by the Belle Stars, iirc.
"what DID ah say, girl?"
-
New to me: Erma Franklin's version of "Light My Fire", sort of a soul-gospel take on the Jose Feliciano arrangement (or maybe he cribbed from her; dunno which came first). Very cool.
-
wow, Angela Clemmons '80s remake of "Give Me Just a Little More Time", which I haven't heard since back then.
-
left town yesterday to my brother's wedding (3rd) today in Cambria. So, KPIG-AM from SF to somewhere in the SJ area. KPIG-FM as we blew by Salinas, and KPYG-FM in Morro Bay and Cambria!

Oh to be able to hear them in stereo!
Woke up to KPIG this morning. I've been looking for ages for a countrified Herb Pedersen cover of "Paperback Writer" I remember playing in college radio. Long out of print, but there it was on KPIG!

from time-to-time, KPIG-AM sounds like a channel is missing, and it really irks me, and I've called the station twice. The last time, the DJ was really enthusiastic about Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks 2nd version of "I Scare Myself" and the violin solo was deeply buried, like it was on a missing channel. The DJ said it was because I didn't have an AM Stereo radio! What's up with that?

not having AM stereo should not affect your hearing both channels, afaik. When they first started broadcasting on 1510 a year ago, they were feeding one channel to the transmitter (and one channel from the internet version, to boot) but I was under the impression that was rectified.
-
Little Steven's "Freak of the Week" tonite is Little Richard, and instead of something obvious, he played Richard's cover of "Brown Sugar", which is a new one on me -- he changes "How come you dance so good" to "...taste so good". DAY-um! Oh, and this is cute --as part of this tribute-to-Little Richard set, he's playing "Drag City." ROTFL!
TANC: I brought some garage-rock mix tapes that I made some 18 years ago to the gym today -- lots of Nuggets stuff and the like. So far Steven has played 3 songs from those tapes in his show -- and we're only 40 minutes in! ("Psychotic Reaction", "Bend Me Shape Me" and "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man".)
ETA: yet another new-to-me obscurity from Steven: Nancy Sinatra's cover of the Beatles' "Run For Your Life"!

I agree, it sounds fishy to me, but sometimes it's clearly wrong, a channel is missing!
